Five seconds later, the bird is 850maway. Assume a constant velocity for all involved.

- One of my questions got solved and helped me so much thank you! Here’s another one please. Two trains are 9.82km apart. They travel in opposite directions, to each other. Train A has a speed of 5.87 km/h at departure and an acceleration of 0.29m/s squared. Train B has a speed of 20.3m/s at the start and an acceleration of 0.69m/s squared. B. Determine when the trains meet.arrow_forwardYour friend is standing at the balcony of a building which is H meter high from the ground while you are standing at the parking lot situated at the ground level. Now you realize that you got the wrong keys of your car so you decided to throw the wrong keys to your friend and ask her to drop the original keys. She dropped the keys and at the same instant you threw the keys straight up with a speed of u. Determine the height at which both sets of keys cross each other. Take H=160 m,u=40 m/s and g=10 m/s^2arrow_forwardAn astronaut in deep space is at rest relative to a nearby space station. The astronaut needs to return to the space station. A student makes the following claim: “The astronaut should position her feet pointing away from the space station. Then, she should repeatedly move her feet in the opposite direction to each other. This action will propel the astronaut toward the space station.” Is the student’s claim correct? Justify your selection. a Yes. The astronaut’s feet will have a velocity that is transferred to her center of mass, accelerating the astronaut toward the space station. b No. The astronaut would move away from the space station, not toward it, since her feet are pointed away from the space station. c Yes. The astronaut’s feet exert a force away from the space station, creating an equal and opposite force that will accelerate the astronaut toward the space station. d No. The astronaut’s feet are not exerting a force on another object, so…arrow_forward

- After a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by v=1.2i9.8tj where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. The balls displacement away from the edge of the table, during the time interval of 0.380 s for which the ball is in flight, is given by r=00.3803vdt To perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem [A+Bf(x)]dx=Adx+Bf(x)dx You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s.arrow_forwardA landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.42arrow_forwardDaniel takes his two dogs, Pauli the Pointer and Newton the Newfoundland, out to a field and lets them loose to exercise. Both dogs sprint away in different directions while Daniel stands still. From Daniel's point of view, Newton runs due North at 4.65 m/s, but from Pauli's point of view, Newton appears to be moving at 2.10 m/s due East. What must Pauli's velocity relative to Daniel be for this to be true? Express your answer in terms of the x- and y-components if North is the +y-direction and East is the +x-direction. x-component: m/s Y-component: m/s Express your answer as a magnitude and an angle measured counter-clockwise from due East. magnitude & direction: at a angle counter-clockwise from due Eastarrow_forward
